"This book represents a comprehensive presentation of group
sequential methods. Written by active researchers in this area, it
provides an ideal source for those wishing an introduction to the
area and for those who desire a clear outline of specific topics or
methods. It should quickly become a standard reference both for
those wishing to apply the methods and for researchers in the
area…The extent of coverage of various topics broadly reflects
current usage…the discussion of each topic appears to be well
balanced…All in all, this is a very welcome book."
- Short Book Reviews of the ISI
"The statistical methodology for sequential trials is complicated.
This book provides an excellent presentation of it. It succeeds as
both a training text and as a reference source. I liked the
progression of the book…any statistician involved in designing or
analysing sequential trials should have a copy."
--Tim Auton, Protherics, Macclesfield
